Cheltenham Day 2

[them0uf]

Well this looks a damned sight trickier than Day 1. well done Elite for showing up on the first day. A day of wrong choices for me - apart from the last where I hadn't even considered the winner - where I had the winner in my first two choices and went the wrong way. Mug!

And for tomorrow (with a huge health warning)

1:30 Black Op ew
2:10 Black Corton ew
2:50 William Henry ew
3:30 Altior ew
4:10 Tiger Roll ew
4:50 Act of Valour ew
5:30 Didtheyleaveyououtto ew]

I just hope Altior doesn't get bogged down. He is the most exciting 2 miler since the glorious Sprinter (who surely is only bettered by Arkle)

Tomorrow is the day I'll be there (weather looking good) so I've done many hours of form study, but my predictions haven't been profitable on day 2 for a while. I'm think I'm due a change in fortunes, so here are my thoughts:

1:30 Vision Des Flos (e/w)
2:10 Elegant Escape (e/w)
2:50 Mount Mews
3:30 Altior
4:10 The Last Samuri
4:50 Eragon De Chanay (e/w)
5:30 Blackbow

Eragon De Chanay would be a big winner for me, even a place would come close to covering me for the day. I have backed him at 40/1 and 33/1 since he won impressively at the weekend, and he's now as low as 10/1 with many bookies. I was going to watch the feature race for pleasure rather than financial interest, but after being 8/13 for most of the week, Altior has drifted to a tempting 11/10. If I see any bookies offering 5/4 tomorrow I'll probably lump on.

Would you not rather see ALTIOR shortening than drifting E_P? My only success y'day (despite it being a bad day for the bookies if there is such a thing) was an e/w bet on the springer in the big race, MELON, that gave BUVEUR D'AIR such a fright. Melon's odds halved in the minutes before the off.

So I use paddy power online and wanting to know if this offer on the first race is any good? If Samcro wins they’re giving money back as a free bet. Seems like a no brainier but is it too good to be true ?

So the bloke who accuses me of starting arguments and stalking him follows me on another Cheltenham prediction thread.
Does he make any Cheltenham predictions? No, he comes solely to have a dig at me, proving what a hypocrite he is.

Yes, I lost yesterday. I had more bets than the above, but only collected on Altior who I had a hefty bet on at 5/4, but it didn't cover my losses on the day. I'd guess my betting was about £40 down, and I spent a similar amount on beer and food. Did it spoil the day? Not in the slightest, I had one of the best days of my life as I always do on the middle Wednesday in March. I took a coachload of 50 people down, I only see most of them once a year but it was great to meet up again. I loved every minute from boarding the bus at 9am to getting off 12 hours later, a real laugh all day long and an atmosphere unrivalled anywhere. If the image of a thin (??) balding (??) penniless (??) guy makes you sleep happily at night, then stick with it by all means. I'll see if I can get a pic to show you the reality.
